There has been a lot of talk about his return. Apparently, Messi has requested it himself.
Real Madrid are reportedly in the conversation as well.
Neymar’s career hasn’t been the same ever since he moved to Paris. His head is clearly not at PSG. Should he return to Camp Nou this summer?

Though news mills seem to be churning, This sounds like a very very optimistic rumour. There are many many difficult hurdle for this to go through.
Neymar’s acrimonious departure in the fist place. Many in Camp Nou’s board will have a strong aversion to the move. Most fans as well due to Neymar’s conduct at the time of deparure and since.
PSG has no compulsion at all to part with him, financial or otherwise. They will not even enter negotiations if they have slightest of doubt about deal being best thing for them.
With Antoine Griezmann coming and Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele and Philippe Coutinho all in situ, Barca are well set. If they think of bringing in Neymar, one or both of Dembele and Coutinho would have to leave. The changes will be financial requirement as well.
And there’s the small matter of unpaid bonuses to Neymar, something that the Brazilian, through his representatives, sued Barcelona for. As of this moment they are still to be paid. That also needs to be settled.
And most important of all, Neymar will need swallow his large sized ego.
If all of the above criteria can be met, then there’s a small chance a deal could be struck.
I have been reading this news and just been thinking that Neymar will be the best example to every football player who is just running behind money. After PSG president’s statement and the rape allegations against him he has made his mind to leave France.
But being a Barca fan, I don’t want this deal to go through and be done. Let him teach a lesson in his life and cut that ego out of being the richest footballer in this present generation. You must have that Pride of playing for a club like Barca and he ditched it just because he wanted to win Ballon d’Or or be greater than Messi or Ronaldo. See where he’s landed, World Cup flop, injury prone, inside player clashes. He’s made the headlines only for the wrong reasons and Barca has enough strength in the front with Greezi coming in.
Agree with Yash. Neymar lost credibility and allegiance to Barca the day he moved to PSG and breached the contract (lawsuits filed by both parties). I don’t think he should be taken back into Barca even if he is ready to swallow his ego & redeem himself. This is from a fan’s perspective, speaking from the heart…
But the Clubs and players play a different ball game, where the rules of the game are dictated by money, profits and ROI. So, anything can happen! And who knows, if the rumors are to be believed, Neymar’s crying, rolling and flopping antics could be a familiar entertaining sight on Camp Nou this season…
